Hoodie, unisex cut. The measurements in parantheses are the half chest width, the total length, and sleeve length, in that order. There will be a second poll for sizes XL-3XL in response to this one.

“Chinese courts rule AI replacement is not legal grounds for firing workers as global tech layoffs hit 78,000”

Remember a while back when surveys showed that people in China were a lot less anxious about "AI" than those in the west?

I want to get the sizes right this time, so I'm going to post a few polls in response to this post. Please respond if you've bought or are planning to buy from our merch shop (see context in the quote).

LLMs are changing every aspect of higher education, but perhaps none more so than computer science, where LLMs inflame the age-old tension between the thrill of building and the importance of first-principles understanding. Today, @ahl and I will be joined by Brown University CS professors Shriram Krishnamurthi and Kathi Fisler to talk about their experience teaching an agentic AI course -- and what it might bode for the future of CS education.

Renewable sources produced 33.8% of the world’s electricity last year, compared to 33% for coal. First time those two lines crossed since 1919, when global grid was still small enough to run mostly on hydropower.

Not A Good Sign:

"We have opinion poll data from the 60s. And similar to today, there is really a striking correspondence of support by tens of millions of Americans for that political violence itself. So what's different about our era today is not just that this is not the first time we've had millions of Americans supporting political violence. It is pretty much the first time it's happened on both sides at the same time."

Bluesky shouldn't measure itself to universal aspirations that X-Twitter itself can no longer achieve, and which were only possible in a unique historical moment in early development of global online cultures between 1984-2014. But to stay ahead of the curve Bluesky users can't just rely on Bluesky.

Admittedly, this is probably not the most illustrative example of the URG flag, but it was surprisingly difficult to find other uses of it in real-world captures.

Fun observation:

If you do cool stuff, then over time you will gather a bunch of people who are interested in doing cool shit, and will quickly feel like the cool shit you're doing is inadequate because you're surrounded by people who can do cooler shit than you.

This is a desirable outcome. (It's related to the friendship paradox, too!)
